Columbia, Mo., Feb. 12—(Special to the University Daily Kansan). Kansas arrived here early last night after an all-day 355-mile bus trip from Lincoln, Neb., and after checking in at the Tiger hotel, went through a light limbering-up drill in Brewer Field house in preparation for tonight's conference clash with Sparky Stalcup's Missouri Tigers.
Coach F. C. "Phog" Allen will send his K.U. club into the Missouri game in quest of its 13th win as against five defeats. This same M.U. club is ranked eighth defensively in the nation having restricted its opponents to an average of 47.9 points a game.
In conference play, Kansas owns a 5-1 record and Missouri a 2-3 record. Stalcup's Tigers have won 10 and lost seven this year to rank as an in-and-out club. They have beaten such teams as C.C.N.Y., Ohio State, and Oklahoma at Norman.
Kansas also ranks high nationally
in the defensive department holding down the 11th spot in the latest N.C. A.B. official basketball statistics. The Jayhawkers have held their 16 opponents to an average of 48.9 points a game.
The Jayhawkers won an earlier game against M.U. this year at Lawrence, 61 to 46, and will be favored again tonight.
Phog Allen Is Appointed To Coach West All-Star Team
Dr. F. C. "Phog" Allen, veteran Kansas basketball coach, here Saturday accepted an appointment to coach the West All-Stars in the sixth annual East-West College basketball game March 31 in Madison Square Garden.
Missouri last defeated Kansas here in 1944 by a 28 to 35 score and the Jayhawkers will be out to better this six-game victory streak tonight. In fact, KU has won nine of the last 10 games played here.
The 65-year-old Jayhawk ringmaster, now in his 41st season of coaching, was selected by the New York Herald-Tribune, which annually sponsors the affair for its Fresh Air Fund. Allen will fly to New York March 26 for the start of practice. He is responsible for selecting his own 10-man squad.

been it. It is the second major national baseball accorded Allen in as many years. He was named "Basketball's Man of the Year" last winter by the National Basketball Coaches' association.
"I consider coaching in this game a high honor," the bombastic Mt. Oread boss said. "It isn't often any coach gets an opportunity to direct such an array of fine players as will take part in this game."
Then he added . . . "I'm going to

the Coats, Snihawkers, Charlie Black and Otto Schnellbacher, previously have played for the West squad, in 1947 and 1948, respectively.
Big Seven players competing last year were Paul "Cat" Merchant, Oklahoma, and Bus Whitehead, Nebraska. The West won, 66-59, to bring the al-time series totals to 2-3 in favor of the East.
Here are the series' results:
1946 East (Joe Lapchik, St. John's)
60. West (Harold Olsen, Ohio State)
59.
1947 West (Hank Iba, Oklahoma A. & M.) 66, East (Nat Holman, CCNY) 58.
1949 East (Adolph Rupp, Kentucky) 65; West (Vadal Peterson Utah) 64.
1948 East (Ben Carnevale, Navy)
58; West (Moose Krause, Notre Dame) 47.
1950 West (Slats Gill, Oregon State) 66; East (Dr. H. C. Carlson, Pitt) 59.
Columbus, O. (U.P.)—Woody Hayes? Paul Brown? Chuck Mater? Any one of these three men might be named head coach at Ohio State today to succeed Wes Fesler, who decided Dec. 9 that the $15,000-a-year job in this football "hotbed" wasn't worth the headaches.
Ohio State Coach
Haves is coach at Miami university while Brown heads the five-time champion professional Cleveland Browns, and Mather is a highly successful coach at Massillon, O., high school. They are generally considered the top three candidates for the job.
Four other prospects were also very much in the running as the coaching selection committee and the athletic board met this morning to make a recommendation. They were Harry Strobel, Ohio State freshman coach, Warren Gaer of Drake, Jim MacDonald of Springfield High school and Sid Gillman of the University of Cincinnati.
The board might send any one of these men's names to the trustees, who were to meet later today, for final approval or rejection. Each candidate has his share of sponsors and detractors.
The Jayhawkers also hold a 7-2 edge over Stalcpin since he took over the basketball coaching duties in Tigerland five years ago. This includes a 6-2 edge for Coach Allen
in his coaching series with Stalcup. Missouri's biggest worry tonight is how to halt the scoring tactics of Clyde Lovellette, the conference's greatest scorer of all-time.
Against the Tigers, Lovellette has scored 29,39,and 18 points in three conference games for an average of 28.7 points a game.
SOME OF THE MISSOURI TIGER REGULARS talk things over with their coach, "Sparky" Staleup, in preparation for their game with the Kansas Jayhawkers in Columbia, Mo., tonight. In conference play K.U. has a 5-1 record and Missouri has a 2-3 record. The Tigers have beaten such teams as C.C.N.Y. and Ohio State outside Big Seven play and have beaten Oklahoma at Norman in the conference. Both teams rank high nationally in the defensive department. The Jayhawkers won the first game between the two teams this year at Lawrence 61 to 46.

Lincoln, Neb., Feb. 10 As was expected, the Nebraska Cornhuskers displayed enough power in the field events Saturday to defeat Kansas, 59 to 45, in a dual track meet at Lincoln. It was the opening indoor of the season for the Jayhawkers.
Kansas' senior hurdler Jack Greenwood was the individual star of the meet. He won both the high and the low hurdles in record time, and added 10 points to the Jayhawker total.
Greenwood's timber topping mate, Bob DeVinney, was second high scorer for Kansas. DeVinney finished second in the low hurdles, second in the 60-yard dash, and third in the high hurdles for seven total points. Herb Semper was the only other Jayhawker to pick up points in two events. The redhead won the mile run, then came back less than a half-hour later to place third in his specialty the two mile.
Greenwood, Abel, and Semper were the only individual winners for the Jayhawks. Greenwood sped the 60-vard high hurdle distance in .97.5, bettering by two-tenths of a second the old record held jointly by four Nebraskans and one Kansan (Frank Stannard in 1944). The Kansas Citizen's 7-flat performance in the 60-yard low hurdles tied a standard set in 1938 and equalled twice since—all by Nebraska men.
mife.
Cliff Abel and Keith Palmquist, each running his first and only race of the night, beat the tiring Semper to the tape. Abel's winning time was 10 minutes even. He was timed in five minutes flat for each mile. Abel was defending champion of the event—winning last year at Lincoln in the meet-record time of 9:53.4.
